and about cal fresh? is it promoting my benefits cal wynn more broadly, is it going to community-based organizations to churches and to senior center and getting right down into the community, to try to get this message out, and to get more flexion believe ways of people applying for cal fresh, and so we see it as a very important question, we don't really have the answer yet. but we are started to graplle with the way to get an answer and a method to reach those individuals. >> thank you for your answer and it seems like that you are thinking along the same lines as i was thinking in terms of where do we to the extensive out reach. and we will identify where they are and whether or not you want to go to the office, and apply on-line, and you are missing a lot of people that can't go to the office and can't apply on-line and so, also, thinking once she identifies geographically where they are and maybe we need to make an effort to have some out reach, and station, in those locations. and, as you are promo

they may actually qualify for the medi-cal expansion which means they may qualify for the no cost medi-cal. there are some additional options for this group. that is one consideration. on the last one is persons turn 65 with the medi-cal expansion, they will transition from 64 to 65. at age 64 you are under these new rules and once 65, you are under the different rules. there are a little bit eligibility requirements. when you go from 64-65 there is a transition there and some things that you may need help walking through to make sure that you are having equivalent benefits or getting the benefits that you are eligible going from 64 medi-cal expansion program to the 65 traditional medi-cal program. i do want to call out, there was a wonderful forum last week that the seniors with disability action for health, their website is. sd action.org. they listed all the materials for their website and heightened the awareness for consideration for persons with disabilities. so then i wanted to move a little bit as to when to enroll as well as with persons with disabilities through the enrollment ch

the benefits of traditional medi-cal and expansion medi-cal. but i will keep with the terms traditional medi-cal and expanded medi-cal. the benefits package between traditional and expanded medi-cal will be the same. there is one note that i think is of importance to this group is that there is some state and federal policy pending regarding long-term support and services for the new expanded popping. it's definitely, i don't want to say a gray area but there is some waivers that are pending and we are still waiting for some policy clarification around there. so to kind of bring that full around, i think most people are familiar with the medi-cal program. i did want to put that into the context of health care reform. health care reform does more that expand the medi-cal program. traditionallly medi-cal will continue for persons with disabilities. expansion medi-cal will now expand it to children with income below 250 percent federal poverty level. i do have some examples on what that means because i know not everyone knows what fcl is. and adul

of the is from the cal fresh benefits. and finally you can see that the big white slides there and this is roughly a third of all of the meals, that is needed for the low income population have no identifiable resource. and that does not mean that the people cannot eat those meals, but it does enable to say, that we are a long way from meeting the needs of the low income in our city. and when you total up, to the actual number of meals and what you see, and i am sorry on property jeks is the total missing meals is a total of 74 million meals every single year in san francisco. so can i just ask you, and thank you so much for cheering the task force 74 million meals per year if you calculated a dollar, 60 per meal that really megar amount that is allocated and about 100 million dollars. that is a good way of asking the question. >> i have to think about that for a little bit. and the researchers calculated it as the used actually the definition, of a cost of the meal at 2 $40. and that is just based on i believe the low cos

and extending the cal train and enter city rail and the high speed rail into the new transit center and you see two numbers there, 1.3 miles and 1.95 miles and i will explain the difference between the two numbers, during the next slide and we want to enhance the connectivity of the cal trans and the other systems. and the other trail and the vehicle miles traveled. and the vehicle emissions and improved the air quality and the increase of property values that we were just discussing and it was also very important to us that the dtx be designed and constructed in a way that accommodates the city's future goals specifically reported to the interest that there is in eventually, bringing the tunnel that or the tracks that bring cal tran and high speed rail to the city are undergo on mission bay drive and 16th street and you will see in the present that ising that we have designed the dtx so that the goals be able to be accommodated when the funds are found. and so the new slide and this was referring earlier the difference between 1.3 miles which is the figure that you probably have heard

i advise, cal transseveral years ago on a 100 million straight resurfacing of i-80. and that was not the profile for a p3 project. a p3 project rather should be complicated, and in large, with challenges that can be identified and through ensentive and proven to the private sector and we think that it is a prime candidate for several sxraens number one, you have opening in 2017. and number two your environmental work for the extension is almost done and it should be done some time late in 2014 or early 2015. and number three, the 30 percent design work already done. and otherwise, this project is almost shovel ready, which is very important for the infrastructure development and project delivery and on top of that, i want to emphasize the strong support that they have seen here and discuss with the stake holders in the last month but evan agrees that there is a benefit in accelerating the project. and i want to say that again, this is the profile it is a tunnel and the water table issues and this is complex, that lends itself to design the efficiency and incorporated

65 traditional medi-cal program. i do want to call out, there was a wonderful forum last week that the seniors with disability action for health, their website is. sd action.org. they listed all the materials for their website and heightened the awareness for consideration for persons with disabilities. so then i wanted to move a little bit as to when to enroll as well as with persons with disabilities through the enrollment channels. when to enroll? a couple of dates. october 1st we started to enroll people. the next day is january 1st which is when these options will take effect. from october to december we are calling it preenrollment because you are enrolling now but it doesn't take effect in the january 1st. from january to march 31st, the open enrollment periods ends. you can apply for medi-cal any time of year but for "covered california" that registration period ends march 31st. there is a population that targets medi-cal eligibility. what we don't want to happen is people thinking they can wait and they have

fra signed off on the documents that we had signed off for both cal train and high speed rail. we did some construct engineers that showed you the future great separation. and we provided technical studys, for the sea, eirs work because the engineering studies are needed to back up what is going into that document. and obviously, the role of the design group designed everything with the plans that come in for the terminal to make certain that they were in and the space to put in and the signals and that we are working together jointly. the supplemental year, we signed that contract up and noticed the appropriation was noticed to the public in april and we had all firefighter the public scoping meeting in may. and the draft, ser, reis is expected to be out to the public, early next year. and we will be with the administrative draft probably for the first week in january and the final is expected to be complete, late in 2014. and possibly early 2015, depending on the sign-off out of washington, d.c.. this money is funded under fta and so we are now, working with both fta and fra

pers members and non-cal pers members. so the first line here is for average of all facilities. we can see that basically for all of the -- across all the groups, there was an increase from 2008 to 2010. average was about 35,000 in 2010 for the cal pers members. after the implementation of this program, it drops to about 25,000, in that range. the same for 2010 to 2011. what was surprising was this impact on the non-reference based pricing facilities, dropped dramatically down to 27, 28,000 after the implementation of the program. so we can see that for the most part those charges stayed the same outside of cal pers. and again, i have a chart showing that. we see the implementation of the program, which is the dotted blue line, and you see this dramatic drop in prices. i have one more chart kind of getting at what andrea was talking about, with the variation in costs. i don't know if they show up as pink dots here or orange, but they were pink originally -- or orange originally, i think they're pink now. but the reference

and options, and ultimately, we need to have, the city and cal train high speed rail, and the ta, and all agreeing about the path forward and the only way that we are going to be really be sure that we are there if we are bringing those agencies so that we can hear from all of them. i really, it is so good, to have you here. i mean that i really want to make sure that we work out the issues like in this blended system are we have compatible stock and the high speed rail and cal train going to be the same platforms or not? none of this works, unless we get those details worked out. and so any way, and i am hoping that we can go into more depth. >> any other comments, director reiskin? >> i would concur with what he said and it is great to bring this forward now, and i think that with the phase one, we should shift the focus of this board to phase two, and when we reemphasize what scott noted with regard to last year's mlu, that this project extending cal train and high speed rail to the transbay center, is the top priority in the region along with the bart to san jose and i think that

and reduces the potential redevelopment size of what we called block 8 and those in agreement with cal trans, to turnover the portion of the area of once it is realigned to the city for the smaller piece that the city owns and to sell the property for the redevelopment to fund the project. and this is part of the transpay redevelopment plans and the open skate. and project. to realign to make it with the existing ramp on freemont street and without a traffic signal and provide for the president crossing across the base of the ramp and then allowing for the redevelopment of the parcel. and to do this, we also with the freemont street and so that all turn and movements will be preserved and all assets will be preserved instead of the right that you come off of the ramp now you will come down to the ramp and make a 90 degree and go up to the single. >> the car pool don't they drop off in this area? >> they will be able to do that and that will remain open during the construction. and the off-ramp and the off-ramp will remain throughout construction. >> and so nothing will be disturbed. >>

train and i am glad to see this discussion, opening up from the perspective of cal train riders, and the dtx and connecting to downtown, and all of these things considered. sooner is better. and looking at dates that we can see, is just really, fantastic thing, and with all of the things to consider. and the board members have brought up, and we are looking at and so on on the capacity issue, and agreeing on the blended system, was a great way that does impose the capacity limitations in doing

train to understand what everybody's assumptions are of what cal train service looks, or looks like post dtx and how many trains, and how much service will be at fourth and king, above ground and below ground and how much will be at the transit center. and i think that is a very significant >> there is a cutter of the process and the maybe, the bay bridge construction that makes that cut over able to happen to the minimal destruction to the cal train which would be great. and with regard to the budget, and i think that we definitely need to dig into that and as we did recently for phase one, and but we are in a much better and earlier point to understand what some of those assumptions, and in the budget are, and i think that it is good to start about refreshing those numbers and bearing out those assumptions. and then, i guess, finally, we seem to get a pretty big focus on delivery method and particularly a specific delivery method. and we saw all of the benefits of a p3, but there was no discussion of potential down sides or trade offs and i think that maria barlow's cautions were

the cal trans, typically accepts, but the list here for the project sponsor, with the high water table and so one of the risk allocations could be if there is a leakage in the tunnel it would not be available for the train use with the performance based p3 process and they would not get the full compensation and that kind of an oversight or problem in the tunnel. the last thing is that in terms of the advantages is asset maintenance. somebody designed the bill projects and cal transadmits a good example of this and we wanted to budget problems and defer the maintenance and it can be expensive in the long run or all types of projects. and to illustrate what a p3 project looks like, we will show you the outline and what happens, at its core is that a p3 developer, could be as many as 30 firms in a joint venture group. but the p3 developer forms a limited liability corporation ration. and the people often ask me if, a private entity will have a higher interest rate charge, and a higher cost of capitol than a public agency. and i will tell you that the procedio parkway with the short term

because we don't have the money for everything and for the gpd perspective, the immediate commitment to cal train electrickfiation is important and that is the policy through the board and where we are to have the electrified cal train service by 2019 and that service is to fourth and king as long as the dtx is not yet in place. and so, that commitment is important and i need to highlight that. and but having said that, also, in that mlu. is a commitment to the next incremental investment which is a blended system with the priority to the dtx project and i think that what is interesting, over the last couple of months, and maybe about a year. and it is after we got on board with the blended system. and there has been a need to talk about and a need to revisit a lot of things and because for a long time, we were planning for a high speed rail system that was a fully separate system. and so, when you design around that concept, and then you go from that to a system which is the blended system you have to revisit a lot of the assumptions and how you kill design things and i think that this is
